I have two problems with Office 2007 that may be related and center on UAC
and the type of account being used.
Office 2007 works perfectly, but only on Administrator Accounts and only if
UAC is turned off. If UAC is turned on then Office 2007 tries to install
itself, even on an Administrator Account and even if an Office program is
running. Office 2007 does not run on a Standard User Account at all. (It
tries to install itself and then tells me I need to be an administrator).
But if I make that account an Administrator Account Office 2007 works.
I've tried modifying permissions in the OPA12.dat file and have uninstalled
and reinstalled the program regularly over the past couple weeks - with UAC
on and off (it's off now so the programs can be used in at least the
administrator account). I've read of a file called OPA.exe - but can't find
it and am not sure what it would do, but it seems related to the OPA12.dat.
I'm at a lose on what to do next, and am very frustrated with a program
that cost several hundred dollars but seems more limited then my old Office
2000.
I'm running Outlook professional 2007, Vista Home Premium (the 64 bit
version)on an hp machine.
Again, I'd appreciate any help.
